Since you clearly know nothing about my car, I'll educate you.

It is a rivet perfect copy of a car the Frazer Nash works produced for the 1928 TT utilizing many original parts. The chassis, running gear and body are to exact pre-war specification using all the same materials including a very heavy ash frame fabric body, cable 10" brakes, std chassis frame and axles.
The only current deviation from the original car, which no longer exists in this form, is that I run it with a vintage Meadows engine (rather than super charged Anzani), which is clearly highly developed with new internals etc, as all other quick prewar cars also have, and the engine is 1750 cc rather than 1500. As such when ever I compete with the VSCC in this car I enter it as a special. Many Anzani engined cars were converted to Meadows in period.

Most people just compliment this unwieldy and unlikely 'race' car which is really quite scary to drive for being driven quickly.
As John correctly states chain drive Nashes have a big advantage in the wet as they have no differential. Had it been dry, Swift & I would have been no where near the podium.

You would be welcome to come and inspect it for yourself and if you are very unlucky, take it out for a test drive....

I love the car and the way it handles on track, spectacular to watch. Pre war or the later GP voiturettes are really a thing I'd like to try.
